Unfortunately I did not get notified of your question being posted due to a technical glitch.

Coming to your question, Euflexxa is a good option for temporary pain relief in osteoarthritis of knee .The effect of injection may last anywhere from 3 months to 1 years.The average expected time of relief is 6 months.

Good thing is that the injection can be repeated multiple times without any side effects.

Feel free to ask any follow-up questions.

Thank you for your reply Dr. Sawhney. I'm just hoping to buy some time and put off the inevitable TKR. I know techniques have changed and the surgery is much easier on the patient than years ago, but replacement parts are never as good as the original! Even if I can achieve relief for a few years, I think it's worth the gamble. Again, thank you for your response. Still very nervous, but I'm going for it!

I will tell you that...the things you have to go through to be an Expert are quite rigorous.

Just let me say that this encounter has been entirely professional and most helpful. I liked that I could ask additional questions and get answered in a very short turn around.
